spolehlivých

Spolehlivých is not a standalone lexical entry, but a grammatical form of the Czech adjective spolehlivý, meaning reliable or dependable. The word spolehlivý describes qualities of people or things that can be trusted or relied upon. Spolehlivých is the genitive plural and the locative plural form of the adjective, used with a noun in those respective cases. For example, in genitive plural you may encounter spolehlivých lidí (reliable people) or spolehlivých partnerů (reliable partners); in locative plural you find o spolehlivých lidech (about reliable people).

Etymology and morphology: spolehlivý derives from the verb spoléhat (to rely) with the adjectival suffix -livý, forming a word that denotes capability or tendency. The ending -ých in spolehlivých marks the plural genitive or plural locative endings for hard-stem adjectives in Czech.

Usage: spolehlivých is common in formal and written Czech when the adjective agrees with a plural noun in genitive or locative. It conveys a neutral, factual assessment of reliability without attributing emotional connotations. It commonly appears in professional, academic, or administrative contexts, as well as in everyday descriptions of people, firms, or systems.

Examples:

- Bez spolehlivých údajů nelze rozhodnout. (Without reliable data, one cannot decide.)

- Spolehlivých zaměstnanců hledáme pro projekt. (We are looking for reliable employees for the project.)

- O spolehlivých lidech se mluvilo na schůzi. (There was talk about reliable people at the meeting.)
